Description

Monte Carlo calculations, using the Geant4 framework version 10.02, of energy deposition from gamma- and neutron radiation emitted from boiling water reator (BWR) fuel assemblies in a KBS-3 type deep geological repository for used nuclear fuel have been performed. This dataset contains the results of the calculations. Three fuel rods were arbitrarily selected as source rods for 662 keV and 2.75 MeV gamma- and neutron radiation, respectively. For each of the six cases, the energy deposited in a 3-dimensional (x,y,z) mesh with 1 cm resolution was calculated and tallied as function of the type of particle that deposited the energy.

See README-file for details about each datafile.

The dataset was originally published in DiVA and moved to SND in 2024.
